Gains/settings = none at the time. maybe +2 bass, +3/+4 sub, 0,-1,-2 treble. I didn't use any type of equalizer, and the amp was left at a mid setting. I made a bridged connection, and set it accordingly
Box: Made my own, caulked shut, it's a sealed box. Painted it with Kilz primer five times to prevent mold/mildew/sogginess since Del Sols tend to leak in strange places. Applied generic cheapo carpet (exterior), bolted it down to plywood 'floor' in trunk, which is bolted through the trunk and into the body of the car using 5/8" bolts and washers along with loc-tite.

as far as the bass goes, I'd like to have accurate, consistent, and the ability for loud.



I did mention it, but it was a Memphis Mojo. Capable of handling 1000w peak... It was $450 brand new, no box. I didn't get ripped off, their stuff just isn't for the faint of heart. I think the cheap one is something like the MCD-3280432 something or other. I don't remember. I read up on it, but I opted for something 4 times as expensive for reliability, which seems to have failed me.
